This one wasn't on the poll, I tried installing the one that received the most votes buuuut it had so many bugs and I couldn't get it to work right, if you dislike this skin let max or me know and we'll take it down. You also have the option of picking which skin you want to use in your user cp, so you can pick the default again.

how about this? It doesn't kill your eyes and it's very simple.
I'll get a logo image made whenever.

liked the old one a lot more.
simple is way way way better on messageboards.
check out bco or vlv to see what i'm talking about.

there's a few things i don't like about it, but overall i think its good. ill try and see if i can get 1 or 2 more simple backup templates, and that way if you dont like this one you can just use the other ones.

the posts aren't next to each other, which means twice as much scrolling, there is a lot of stuff going on, but the buttons that are important are hard to read, ie. the search this thread, quote, reply, etc. are all a bright blue against a grey, which is tough on my eyes, the box at the top is right under the thing about designing my own messageboard, and they're the same color template so i almost clicked on it, and it seems like threads are taking twice as long to load. also, a bunch of threads required me clicking refresh a half dozen times to load.

oh god! i didnt even notice, but when you look at all the threads, its like, ten times as long because of all that space, just awful.

well i just tried to add in some simple ones and basically proboards has set this up so we can either have this way or the old way. the only changes i can make without changing all of them is just inside of the small windows. if you go into your profile and select the "blue tech" skin or the "default" or whatever, you can see that only a few small changes are made. thats basically the extent of what i can do without deleting this entire new change because the headers and footers are separate from the templates. this is stupid on proboards part. so ill make a poll and we can either keep this new one or go back to the old one, we cant really have both.

oh yea rob you said it was taking longer to load. proboards is having server issues right now. the time it takes to load has nothing to do with the template, its the server. take the "57" out of the url and it loads faster.

I didn't vote in the first poll because there was no option for keeping the current template.
this new one hurts my fragile eyeballs though, and takes a lot more scrolling.

the only thing I could see people complaining about are the gradients, but judging from the last template I'm sure people will find something else to complain about.

its alright if you adblock about 75% of the unnecessary gradients and shit. quit trying to make it look pretty. the first scheme was fine. maybe install an inverted sceme for those who like dark backgrounds.

inverted is a good idea, but making those things from scratch is so fucking aggravating.
